Take Your Time
_ There is a hint of spring in the air in spite of the chill
Winds. And there is a quickening of the spirit that makes
us want to be up and doing. Plans for action are burgeoning in our minds. Our steps are quicker, our motions faster. There is so much we want to get done!
_ That's all very fine. But you don't have to do everything all at once. If you do, you are sure to miss out on
something. So— take your time! Check your p'ans — you
will find that you will discard some when you think them
oyer. And, if you take your time, you will do first things
first, and thus have more time.
I'm finding this out. S'uch plans as I had! They would
have required fourteen-hour days to even make a dent in
them. And then I took a tumble. Two weeks in bed effectively messed up my schedule.
So I have had to take my own advice and take my time.
And I'm finding out it works. First, the plans had to be
sorted out and cut down. Next, things had to be done in
the order of their importance. The first thing I found out
was how I had cluttered up my time with unimportant
things. Then when I did the most important tasks first,
there wasn't anything hanging over me that had to be done.
And when I exercised my mind to plan how I would do a
job, the actual physical doing took less time.
It even works with typing, going slow means far fewer
rewrites. And somehow or other the work gets itself done
just as well, if not better.
There is another compensation in taking your time. It
is the sense of enjoyment in accomplishment, rather than of
depression that more has not been done. If you have taken
your time, you can properly evaluate the work you have
done — and find ways to improve it.
There is a sense of peace that comes with taking our
time. I remember once a. retired judge told me that after
he had a heart attack and had to slow up, he found that he
was getting more out of life. Moving slowly, he had time
to see things aboyt him. that he had missed by rushing, to
enjoy watching things— the view from his orf ice w-,nuow
high above Buffalo harbor, sunsets over the bridge, his garden. He said he enjoyed people more, because he took tin-
to listen to them, not merly to skim off the gist of their remarks and hurry on to the next person.
So— take your time! It is much more comfortable to
do so before you have to!
The Great Thaw
The great thaw seems to have arrived in Washington.
The White House and Congress are beginning to send out a
flood of anti-recession measures calculated to reinvigorate
stagnating economic waters.
It remains to be seen how effective these measures are,
and whether others will be taken in time to bring maximum
results, but on the whole this is most welcome news. The
actions now under way will do much more good than all the
statements we have been hearing to the effect that the
American economy was basically sound and healthy.
Though such talk always seems encouraging, what it means
is open to question. A healthy body might not remain
healthy if nothing were done to promote and preserve
health.
We have not only a rising population, but an increase
in the number of non productive citizens at both ends of
the age range. There are more children and more ageing
in our population than there used to be. They are consumers who do not produce. Also, the consumption needs
and wants of the American people as a whole have increased.
The nation can now produce more than it needs, mainly because of greater efficiency and advances in technology.
Services must be expanded, and provision must be made
for the future needs of a growing population. This means
more schools, hospitals and libraries, constant impi'ovement
of airports and roads. Government, from the local to the
federal level, must spend in these areas.
How can government spend constructively? This is a
major question in our economy today. It is one of the
questions which must be answered by positive action if
the American economy is to remain sound and healthy.
Political Changes
The indications now seem very strong that congress
will be controlled by the Democrats during the last two
Eisenhower years. Lest Republicans become angry and
Democrats gloat, we hasten to explain our reason for making such a prediction.
It is risky to predict politically. It is immoral to do so
lightmindedly, and it is unfair to readers if predictions
are made under the pretense of objectivity but are, in
fact, tendentious. But once this is recognized, trends must
be grasped and gauged. If this is done, the politically
interested public will be improperly served.
Politics is a changing process which involves the morals and sentiments of people. By .spotting the course of
political sentiment, this is generalized and a picture is
given to the public. The public can look at this picture
and react more intelligently. The changing process of
politics can be viewed in such a way as to permit more
people to make some test of what is happening.
Since the war, voting tendencies have begun to change.
Voting habits and proclivities have been a little less fixed
than in the past. More citizens than ever before vote
split tickets. Surprising oscillations and switches from one
side to the other are likely to be the- rule in the years
ahead.
A change has been occuring since 1956, and the signs
now appear to point to its continuation. 'If poeple do not
want this change, it is they who will make up theirs minds
against rt. If they do want it, predictions will not sway
them in an opposite direction.

Flying Object Sighted
Wed. in Columbus
On Wednesday, March 2, Columbus, Ohio was set ajar by
the sight of an unidentified flying object sighted over the city.
Traffic was snarled and law
agencies were swamped with a
wave of telephone calls.
Eastside residents reported a
brightly lighted object, with a
long row of windows, swung at
a high speed around the east
and south sides of the city and
disappeared to the west.
Officials were unable to come
up with any identification or
explanation.
Lockbourne Air Force Base
spokesmen said they had no
planes in the area. However, one
fighter was sent up to check the
sightings.
Airliners bound for Columbus
also were asked to check but
no aerial sightings were reported.
Weather bureau meteorologists
said conditions made it unlikely
that the object could have been
an illusion of the atmosphere.

Women Invited
To Attend Civil
Defense Meeting
Women have been invited to
attend a Civil Defense meeting
:o be held on Friday, April 11,
at 1:30 p.m. at the Canton
American Legion Home, 1439
Cleveland avenue NW.
According to Mrs. Lester Ni-
mor, director of women's activities, the unit is going to
"make Stark County sit up and
take notice" of the need for
an active civil defense.
In explaining the need for
Civil Defense Mrs. Nimon said
that it is "not limited to defense in case of attack, but
includes protection in case of
man-made as well as natural
disaster.
For examples she sited the
case of an airplane losing an
atomic bomb in South Carolina
and damaging property and endangering lives, and another instance when a bomber fired on
three homes in Wisconsin.
Mrs. Nimon said this is just an
idea of the need for and the
importance of Civil Defense
work to the citizens.
Craig ML Moore
Receives Patent
Craig M. Moore of North Canton, Ohio was the recipient on
March 4, 1958 of U. S. patent
No. 2,825,879, entitled "Combination By-Pass And Disconnect
Device For Ringless Socket
Block Assemblies".
Notwithstanding its rather
lenghty title, this invention pertains to electrical meters such
as those which register the kilowatt hours of electricity that
are consumed by customers of
power companies.
In their common construction
these watt meters are of the
so-called "socket type" which
permits the meter to be quickly
and easily detached and another
inserted in its place.
The socket type of meter comprises a socket or box with clips
or jaws that are properly connected to the electric circuits
and which receive the terminal
posts or blades of the meter
The socket or box is provided
with a detachable cover having
an opening in which the meter
is mounted, and included also
are special rings by which the
parts are secured together.
However, with these arrangements, it is necessary to remove the meter before the cover may be removed from the
assembly.
In recent years, there have
been produced watt hour meter assemblies of the socket
type in which the cover is made
with a ringless opening and may
be separated from the socket
or box without disconnecting and
removing the meter, and it is
with improvements in these assemblies that Mr. Moore's invention deals.
In other words, Mr. 'Moore
has devised a novel arrangement of parts which permits
the meter to be tested without
disturbing any of the connections in the socket or box an'd
which also allows the meter to
be removed from the box without interfering with the supply
of electricity to the customer.
Basically he accomplishes
these ends by means of disconnect and by-pass links and
associated parts which, in conjunction with a special wrench,
enable the desired results to
be achieved.
This patent has been assigend
the The Superior Switchboard
and Devices Company, Canton,
Ohio.

Wed. in Columbus
On Wednesday, March 2, Columbus, Ohio was set ajar by
the sight of an unidentified flying object sighted over the city.
Traffic was snarled and law
agencies were swamped with a
wave of telephone calls.
Eastside residents reported a
brightly lighted object, with a
long row of windows, swung at
a high speed around the east
and south sides of the city and
disappeared to the west.
Officials were unable to come
up with any identification or
explanation.
Lockbourne Air Force Base
spokesmen said they had no
planes in the area. However, one
fighter was sent up to check the
sightings.
Airliners bound for Columbus
also were asked to check but
no aerial sightings were reported.
Weather bureau meteorologists
said conditions made it unlikely
that the object could have been
an illusion of the atmosphere.

Women Invited
To Attend Civil
Defense Meeting
Women have been invited to
attend a Civil Defense meeting
:o be held on Friday, April 11,
at 1:30 p.m. at the Canton
American Legion Home, 1439
Cleveland avenue NW.
According to Mrs. Lester Ni-
mor, director of women's activities, the unit is going to
"make Stark County sit up and
take notice" of the need for
an active civil defense.
In explaining the need for
Civil Defense Mrs. Nimon said
that it is "not limited to defense in case of attack, but
includes protection in case of
man-made as well as natural
disaster.
For examples she sited the
case of an airplane losing an
atomic bomb in South Carolina
and damaging property and endangering lives, and another instance when a bomber fired on
three homes in Wisconsin.
Mrs. Nimon said this is just an
idea of the need for and the
importance of Civil Defense
work to the citizens.
Craig ML Moore
Receives Patent
Craig M. Moore of North Canton, Ohio was the recipient on
March 4, 1958 of U. S. patent
No. 2,825,879, entitled "Combination By-Pass And Disconnect
Device For Ringless Socket
Block Assemblies".
Notwithstanding its rather
lenghty title, this invention pertains to electrical meters such
as those which register the kilowatt hours of electricity that
are consumed by customers of
power companies.
In their common construction
these watt meters are of the
so-called "socket type" which
permits the meter to be quickly
and easily detached and another
inserted in its place.
The socket type of meter comprises a socket or box with clips
or jaws that are properly connected to the electric circuits
and which receive the terminal
posts or blades of the meter
The socket or box is provided
with a detachable cover having
an opening in which the meter
is mounted, and included also
are special rings by which the
parts are secured together.
However, with these arrangements, it is necessary to remove the meter before the cover may be removed from the
assembly.
In recent years, there have
been produced watt hour meter assemblies of the socket
type in which the cover is made
with a ringless opening and may
be separated from the socket
or box without disconnecting and
removing the meter, and it is
with improvements in these assemblies that Mr. Moore's invention deals.
In other words, Mr. 'Moore
has devised a novel arrangement of parts which permits
the meter to be tested without
disturbing any of the connections in the socket or box an'd
which also allows the meter to
be removed from the box without interfering with the supply
of electricity to the customer.
Basically he accomplishes
these ends by means of disconnect and by-pass links and
associated parts which, in conjunction with a special wrench,
enable the desired results to
be achieved.
This patent has been assigend
the The Superior Switchboard
and Devices Company, Canton,
Ohio.
